Here
Is
Another
Time
The
Anti-Trust
Lawyers
Were
Wrong!
Ever
since
the
anti-trust
lawyers
filed
their
suit
to
put
A«tP
out
of
business,
they
have
been
making,
in
the
newspapers
and
over
the
radio,
various
"allegations"
about
how
they
think
this
company
does
business.
Please
remember
that
"allegations"
are
charges
that
have
not
been
proved.
In
this
case
they
will
be
disproved.
There
have
been
times
in
the
past
when
the
anti-trust
lawyers
made
very
damaging
"allegations"
about
this
company
that
the
courts
eventually
decided
were
utterly
without
foundation.
In
our
last
advertisement
we
told
you
about
the
time
the
anti-trust
lawyers
charged
that
A&P,
two
other
food
chains
and
two
labor
unions
conspired
to
fix
the
price
of
bread
in
Washington,
D.
C
And
yet,
when
this
case
came
to
trial,
it
was
revealed
that
the
defendants
were
actually
telling
bread
cheaper
than
most
other
stores
in
Washington,
and
that
there
wa«
absolutely
no
evidence
that
they
had
ever
engaged
in
any
such
"alleged"
conspiracy.
That
was
the
time
Federal
Judge
T.
Alan
Gold.borough
instructed
the
jury
to
bring
in
a
verdict
of
"not
guilty."
It
was
the
time
he
said
to
thei
anti-trust
lawyers:
"If
you
were
to
thow
thit
record
to
any
experienced
trial
lawyer
in
the
world,
he
would
tell
you
that
there
wat
not
any
evidence
at
all.
"Hontttly,
/
have
never
in
my
over
forty
yeart*
experience
teen
tried
a
cote
that
wat
at
abtolutely
devoid
of
evidence
at
thit.
That
it
the
honett
truth.
I
have
never
teen
one
like
it."
But
this
was
not
the
only
time
that
the
anti-trust
lawyers
made
such
serious
"allegations"
against
AficP
which
were
false.
Again,
and
still
again,
they
brought
cases
against
A&P
and
suffered
defeat.
t
,A
As
we
have
said,
we
think
you
are
entitled
to
know
about
these
other
cases.
And
now,
we
are
going
to
tell
you
about
the
second
time
the
anti-trust
lawyers
were
wrong.
The
North
Carolina
Potato
Case
In
December,
1941,
the
anti-trust
lawyers
brought
a
criminal
•uit
in
Wilton,
North
Carolina.
They
charged
that
A&P's
fresh
fruit
and
vegetable
buying
subsidiary,
and
other
good
American
citizens,
had
conspired
to
fix
and
depress
prices
paid
farmers
for
potatoes
in
North
Carolina,
Virginia
and
Maryland.
Can
anyone
imagine
any
charge
calcujated'to
be
more
damaging
to
a
retail
grocery
business
that
must
rely
on
farmers,
day
after
day,
for
the
food
we
distribute
to
our
customers?
In
this
case
the
anti-trust
lawyers
gave
a
story
to
the
newspapers,
telling
millions
of
farmer*
that
we
were
the
kind
of
people
who
would
force
their
prices
down,
deprive
them
of
a
decent
income,
and
lower
their
families'
living
standard.
These
charges
were
false.
They
made
these
charges
despite
the
fact
that
it
has
always
been
A&P't
policy
to
pay
our
farm
suppliers
fair
market
prices
for
all
produce;
to
aid
agriculture
through
better
distribution
of
its
products;
to
narrow
the
spread
between
farm
and
retail
prices;
and
to
help
farmers
build
better
markets
for
their
products.
That
it
why
many
thousands
of
farmers
all
over
the
country
are
now
coming
to
our
support.
,
When
the
case
finally
came
to
trial,
the
anti-trust
lawyers
put
on
as
their
first
witness
a
potato
expert
of
the
U.
S.
Department
of
Agriculture.
This
expert,
who
was
the
anti-trust
lawyers'
own
witness,
testified
that
contrary
to
the
anti-trust
lawyers'
"allegations,"
the
defendants
made
every
effort
to
help
the
Department
of
Agriculture
in
its
tforts
to
aid
the
potato
farmer
in
better
marketing
of
his
products
and
in
getting
a
better
price
for
his
products.
When
the
anti-trust
lawyers
had
put
in
their
evidence
and
argued
their
case.
Federal
Judge
C.
C.
Wyche
directed
the
jury
to
bring
in
a
verdict
of
"not
guilty."
Judge
Wyche
said
to
the
anti-trust
lawyers:
"I
have
studied
this
case
from
the
very
outset.
In
my
opinion
there
is
no
testimony
produced
from
which
it
can
reasonably
bm
inferred
that
the
defendants-entered
into
a
combination
to
depress
or
lower
the
price
of
potatoes.
"I
might
say
that
I
never
tried
a
case
in
my
life
where
a
greater
effort,
more
work,
more
investigation
bad
been
done,
combing
almost
with
a
fine-tooth
comb
to
gather
evidence,
as
was
done
in
this
case.
"But,
as
was
said
a
long
time
ago,
you
can't
make
brick
without
straw,
and
you
can't
make
a
case
without
fact*"
So,
here
was
a
case
in
which
the
antitrust
lawyers
made
seriously
damaging
charges
against
A&P
in
which
the
Judge
decided'that
there
were
no
facts
to
support
those
charges.
That
is
why
we
say
the
anti-trust
lawyers
can
be
wrong
and
have
been
wrong.
That
is
why
we
say
that
they
are
wrong
again,
just
as
they
were
wrong
in
the
Washington
bread
case
and
the
North
Carolina
potato
case.
l
We
are
going
to
show
the
American
people
that
the
suit
to
destroy
A&P
it
really
a
suit
against
efficiency
and
against
real
competition.
The
real
question
involved
in
this
suit
is
whether
businessmen
are
going
to
be
encouraged
to
do
a
better
and
more
efficient
job;
or
whether
we
are
going
to
let
the
anti-trust
lawyers
in
Washington
blow
the
whistle
on
anybody
who
gets
big
by
giving
the
people
more
for
their
money.
No
one
can
make
us
believe
that
it
is
a
crime
to
try
to
sell
the
best
quality
food
at
the
lowest
possible
price.
